It has influenced the world of story telling in so many ways, and brought to life so much of the culture, and mythology of the east into the west. The whole concept of genies and djinn was popularized through this work. Check it out if you ever get the chance. This particular translation did a good job of blending the feel of ancient times with more modern understandable prose. ( ) This is a very nice edition of stories retold from the Arabian Nights canon written for middle grades and older and illustrated with Maxfield Parrish color plates from the 1909 edition. There were several stories that I did not read as a child/pre-teen and a couple that I have not yet encountered in the Burton version that I have also been reading off and on. I enjoyed Wiggin's selection and think it would be a good introduction for anyone. Recommended. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
